Walk Through This: Harness the Healing Power of Nature and Travel the Road to Forgiveness

Readers of Cheryl Strayed’s Wild know that walking—and even writing or reading about walking!—can be healing. But unlike Strayed, most of us can’t drop everything to hike the Pacific Crest Trail, which stretches for nearly three thousand miles. Instead, travel the path to wholeness with the author of this part-personal narrative, part-guidebook which explores the radical possibilities for self-love, forgiveness, and growth when you reconnect with the natural world right outside your door. Author Sara Schulting Kranz turned to the power and beauty of nature when she was a young single mother, coping with the trauma of sexual abuse and the ache of unexpected divorce. On her journey, she learned that the key to healing from anything is feeling everything—opening up to the full force of grief and love—by walking through it, both metaphorically and literally. The book will introduce you to the concept of nature deficit disorder and offer remedy in the form of exercise prompts, meditations, and everyday tools to reconnect with your surroundings. If you’re suffering setbacks and disappointments or struggling with trauma, this book will guide you forward, one step at a time.
